FAAC 390 – High-Performance Articulated Swing Gate Operator for Large Pillars

 

The FAAC 390 is a premier electro-mechanical articulated arm operator, specifically designed for residential swing-leaf gates with leaf lengths up to 1.8 metres (or 3m with an electric lock). It is the ideal solution for large pillars where linear operators cannot be installed.

 
Engineered for durability and security, the 390 operator offers a robust and versatile automation system for both swing-leaf gates and bi-folding doors. Its articulated arm design ensures a smooth, fluid movement even on complex gate geometries, providing premium Italian reliability for your home access control.


Key Features & Benefits

1. Ideal for Large Pillars

The 390 is specifically engineered for installations where the distance between the gate hinge and the pillar edge is significant (up to 300 mm), making it perfect for traditional masonry pillars where standard actuators struggle.

2. Versatile Swing & Folding Door Support

Beyond standard swing gates, the 390 is highly effective for bi-folding doors (single panel width up to 1.5m), offering a flexible automation solution for various architectural entrance types.

3. High-Security Non-Reversing Motor

The irreversible gearmotor ensures the gate is securely locked when closed. For leaves up to 1.8m, no electric lock is required, providing an integrated security barrier against forced entry.

4. Advanced Anti-Crushing Safety

When paired with FAAC control units (452 MPS or 455 D), the system utilizes an exclusive electronic torque control device, ensuring maximum safety for vehicles and pedestrians.

5. Precision Limit Switch Control

The operator can be equipped with opening and closing travel limit devices, allowing for exact gate positioning and reducing mechanical wear on the system.

6. Robust Articulated Movement

The high-quality articulated arm mimics natural gate movement, reducing stress on the hinges and ensuring long-term mechanical integrity even under frequent use.

7. Weather-Resistant IP44 Protection

Housed in a durable enclosure with an IP 44 protection rating, the FAAC 390 is built to perform consistently in harsh atmospheric conditions and temperatures ranging from -20°C to +55°C.

8. Flexible Release Mechanisms

In the event of a power failure, the 390 features an internal manual release with key. It also supports an external release device with cable and sheath for installations where internal access is restricted.
